The Taylors & Company 1873 Cattleman New Model delivers authentic single-action performance with modern Taylor Tuned precision enhancements. This .45 Colt revolver combines traditional craftsmanship with factory-tuned action components for superior trigger feel and timing.
What Makes This Different
The Taylor Tuned action sets this revolver apart from standard production models through hand-fitted components and precision timing adjustments. Each cylinder chamber receives individual attention for optimal alignment, while the trigger mechanism undergoes careful stone work to achieve a crisp, consistent break. The color case hardened frame provides both authentic period appearance and enhanced surface durability compared to standard blued finishes.
